Course summary
Overview How do you produce film and television content that people will actually watch? And more importantly, how do you make a career out of doing it? On our BA Film and Television Production with a Placement Year degree, you'll learn how to tell great media stories through hands-on film production experience. You'll also learn how to navigate the creative media industries and acquire a powerful mix of creative, critical, technical, and industry skills to launch your career. These skills will be put into practice on your placement year, where you’ll gain real-world experience in an industry setting. During your time studying Film and Television Production with us, you'll build up a portfolio of creative outputs including films, documentaries, television programmes, scripts, podcasts and digital video content. Your creative development will be nurtured by our friendly and supportive teaching team, whose real-world industry experience and world-leading research expertise will help you take your filmmaking to the next level. You’ll also have full access to our professional facilities and equipment - including our newly updated Television Studio, Editing Suites, Recording Studios and a full range of industry standard camera, lighting, sound gear and software - for your coursework and personal projects. UEA takes pride in being the ultimate hub for aspiring filmmakers and television creators. While studying with us in Norwich - the creative centre of the East of England – you’ll build up a strong network of likeminded creatives on your course and beyond. You’ll expand this network when you undertake your industry placement in your third year, gaining real-world experience that complements your course and enhances your career prospects. Our students have interned at a range of local and national media production companies as well as at the East Anglian Film Archive, working and networking with industry professionals in the process. We also have close links with the British Film Institute in London and with film festivals, including the Norwich Film Festival. Our graduates have gone on to success as film industry executives, media managers, producers, and creative directors, or gone to work in film heritage.
